Heads-up Limit Hold 'em: A Basic Strategy
-quite a good read. Glad to have the author back in the fold.

Developing and Using Reads in Heads-up No-limit Hold 'em
-I enjoyed this sort of analysis in HOH but it doesn't wear quite as well when an author is reviewing his own play. A reader might see a degree of self congratulations in an article such as this. This may detract from the lesson.

Counting Outs in Deuce-to-Seven Lowball
-outstanding breakdown and as good an article as I can recall on 27 LB, but I haven't seen this game spread or played in the last decade. Is the HORSE type revival bringing it back? These articles have a place in the magazine and are a good read but at a personal level not particularly relevent.

How to Win With Big Pairs in Stud Eight or Better
-didn't give it a fair read. Visceral reaction to the first read is that it is well done and I'm glad to see that this game is experiencing a comeback.

Chips Changing Value in Tournaments
-very useful considerations.

Using a Read to Delay a Raise
-disagreed with the author's conclusion and approach to the hand.

Bankroll Requirements for Poker
-always enjoy contributions from this author. His writings at 2+2 are a tremendous asset to the site.

Classic Article: On Tilt
-normally I'm a sucker for Mason's contributions but this one was a little flat. It contributed nothing new. This is the sort of area where Feeney really excelled and it would be fantastic to see new material from him. Describing caricatures of players on tilt and extracting lessons is fairly straightforward. This subject needs to be handled with subtlety and depth.

Poker and Finance Part 3
-much like the McCauley series, the ideas are thought provoking, educational and have application away from the table.

Maximizing Value in Free Plays at Sportsbooks
-interesting, well written and very easily understood. Always enjoy contributions from King Yao. At a personal level it had virtually no use other than general interest.

Fantasy Football Part 2
-not yet posted and am uninterested in fanatsy football. This is where 2+2 might consider drawing the line if there are other (poker) articles available to fill the void.
